Type Works: The Printing, Design and Writing of Will Powers

An affectionate, illustrated retrospective of the work, life, and career of Will Powers, book design and production manager at the Minnesota Historical Society Press from 1998 to 2009.

"As design and production manager at the Minnesota Historical Society Press from 1998 to 2009, the years in which our list tripled in size, Will made our books beautiful. He managed production of about 250 titles, designing and composing many of them himself and recruiting talented book people for the rest. Five were included in the Association of American University Presses Book, Jacket, and Journal Show; fifty-five were nominated for Minnesota Book Awards."
